My wrinklies have been married since my dad was in med school and they became lumped with me.
Now, he's a GP in Sydney and has made a good life for himself and our family. Once his practice was established (and the worst of the student loans paid), my mother gave up work and concentrated on the home, though she did work reception at the clinic when I was young.
Both drink, but only socially. As far as I know, neither are on drugs, though Mum IS on a mind altering belief system (Catholicism). Dad's the main atheist of the family, but they've somehow made it work.
Now that the kids are out of the house, they go away on holidays more than ever.
My Dad's my buddy. My Mum's my bane.

"You did WHAT? With WHO? WHERE???"
